The pinion flange pilot is the same size, so it self-aligns. The bolt pattern on the flanges are different and the rear end needs another set of holes to adapt to the 1G driveshaft flange.

The mounting of the rear end is where it gets difficult. No bolt holes line up and you basically start over with the fabrication of the mounting. The rearend needs to be modified so that it fits the smaller 1G subframe. I ended up cutting two of the mounting points on the nose of the rearend because they protruded out too far and were interfering with the subframe. There a total of three points on each side, so I wasn’t too worried that I’m not using all the points.
